We purchased a few clones that are thriving but does anyone know if is there a reason the plants only have 3 leaves instead of 5?

i don't know about gsc but whenever anyone posts about having 1,2 or 3 leaves....people here say ..."they do that sometimes"

Clones could have been taken from a flowering mother and are still attempting to enter the vegetative state completely so it's throwing out immature leaves.

Or it's just the genetics.

Probably because the clone was cut when there were only three finger leaves.

Probably because you dont have the real deal? The ones I have seen that were supposedly it shot more leaves than three. I have seen them budding supposedly also. keep it green dirrtyd

It is normal, they will revert to having 5 or more very soon as the days get shorter.

It has been said that true GSCs have 3 bladed leafs. Idk for sure, but thats what my fellow Cali growers are saying.

I have 3 different strains all throwing off 1,2,3,4 and 5 bladed leaves. Well they were throwing off 1 & 2 bladed leaves a couple weeks ago , now they are getting back on track and throwing out 3 and 5 bladed leaves.

Before I put them out in April they had 5 blades.

My guess is they are not aclimated to being outdoors and the light schedule the sun is on.

But like I said they are gettin.g back on track. I'm sure yours will too

I don't know if this is the case but this is a three bladed clone. I took it 2 weeks into flowering. Left side is last week when I put it outside. On the right you can see the single blades coming in from the reveg. 1/3/5/7/9

most my old true og clones popp out 3 blades at first ...
This is a result of old clones ...not only ogs.. but ogs being old cuts tend to do so ..
This happens when u take a small cut thats been vegging only so long..

So you gotta figure is your cut geneticallly 3blade.. or just having trouble ... health problems..
Any less than 3 id be concearned.. you shud know the difference when u see healthy and genetic 3bladers..

RUDERALIS! No probly health problems. I've never grown kush since everyone else grows it but I have revived some frost bitten plants and they produced three fingered leaves for quite some time but eventually made 5's and 7's.
